L.U.V. Songtext
von John Mellencamp

Guilty ′till proven innocent
I'm thinking about the government
Wondering where the money went
Into outer space, I guess

Lying CS′s everywhere
Pretty boys in their underwear
Statue of Liberty who really cares
About freedom

Singin' about L.U.V. baby, L.U.V.
Singin' about L.U.V. baby, L.U.V.

Throw up, throw down, get yourself a better town
All these towns look the same
Self pity, number one recreation
We′re dying in the USA


Preacher man, he keeps preachin′
While he covets your wife
I ain't sayin′ what's good
I ain′t sayin' what′s right

Singin' about L.U.V. baby, L.U.V.
Singin' about L.U.V. baby, L.U.V.

Wait a minute, let me check my tan
Am I the same color as Superman?
Helter skelter in a foreign land
Monkeys versus dogs

Lying under a big palm tree
With cream and bananas all over me
That′s the way it′s supposed to be
Here in the Garden of Eden

Singin' about L.U.V. baby, L.U.V.
Singin′ about L.U.V. baby, L.U.V.

Singin' about L.U.V. baby, L.U.V.
Singin′ about L.U.V. baby, L.U.V., hey


About L.U.V., about L.U.V.
About L.U.V., about L.U.V.
About L.U.V., about L.U.V.
About L.U.V., about L.U.V.
